WHY LIVE IN ABERDEEN?

A friendly community, a great place to raise a family

Aberdeen Township is a Township in Monmouth County, NJ, and is considered one of the best places to live with highly rated schools according to niche.com On November 8, 1977, the residents of Matawan Township voted to change the name of the Township to create a community identity separate from that of Matawan Borough. The residents voted to call their community Aberdeen Township. Officials believed the new name would draw attention to the Township, as it is listed first alphabetically among New Jersey’s 566 municipalities.

Aberdeen Township is part of the Bayshore Regional Strategic Plan, an effort by nine municipalities in northern Monmouth County to reinvigorate the area’s economy by emphasizing the traditional downtowns, dense residential neighborhoods, maritime history, and the natural beauty of the Raritan Bay coastline.

Within Aberdeen Township, you can access The Henry Hudson Trail. The Henry Hudson Trail is a 22.5-mile tree-lined trail with various beautiful scenery. The northmost section of The Henry Hudson Trail begins in Aberdeen and extends to the Atlantic Highlands.

Aberdeen is a suburban Township of 5.4 square miles containing a mix of residences, light industry, and shopping centers. Sections of the Township include Cliffwood, Cliffwood Beach, Freneau, Oakshades, River Gardens, Strathmore, and Woodfield. There are three postal zip codes that service the Township: 07721, 07735, and 07747.
